Beschreibung
Helen Adams Keller (June 27, 1880 – June 1, 1968) was an American author, political activist, and lecturer. She was the first deafblind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree. The story of how Keller's teacher, Anne Sullivan, broke through the isolation imposed by a near complete lack of language, allowing the girl to blossom as she learned to communicate, has become widely known through the dramatic depictions of the play and film The Miracle Worker.
A prolific author, Keller was well-traveled, and was outspoken in her anti-war convictions. A member of the Socialist Party of America and the Industrial Workers of the World, she campaigned for women's suffrage, labor rights, socialism, and other radical left causes. She was inducted into the Alabama Women's Hall of Fame in 1971. ([...])
Review of the title:
"The autobiography of Helen Keller is unquestionably one of the most remarkable records ever published."—British Weekly.
"This book is a human document of intense interest, and without a parallel, we suppose, in the history of literature."—Yorkshire Post.
"Miss Keller's autobiography, well written and full of practical interest in all sides of life, literary, artistic and social, records an extraordinary victory over physical disabilities."—Times.
"This book is a record of the miraculous. No one can read it without being profoundly touched by the patience and devotion which brought the blind, deaf-mute child into touch with human life, without being filled with wonder at the quick intelligence which made such communication with the outside world possible."—Queen.

Über den Autor
Helen Keller (1880-1968) was an American author, lecturer, and advocate whose work addressed both personal experience and broader questions of human capacity and development. After losing her sight and hearing in early childhood, she became a prominent public figure through her education and writing, demonstrating the possibilities of communication and intellectual achievement under conditions widely regarded as [...] published works include The Story of My Life, Optimism, and numerous essays addressing social, philosophical, and political themes. While widely recognised for her autobiographical writing, Keller also produced reflective and interpretive works that engage with questions of thought, belief, and human agency. Optimism represents one such work, presenting her considered view of the role of mental attitude within a broader philosophical framework. Her writing continues to be read for both its intellectual content and its place within discussions of human potential and experience.
